Creative looks can be achieved by using brick-look tiles. These tiles can be used for kitchen renovation ideas and more. The natural appeal of brick-look tiles gives your room a distressed, industrial appearance of a New York-style apartment. If you want to create the industrial-chic style to your interiors, brick-tiles can achieve this look with minimal effort. Your living space transforms into something old and new at the same time. Here’s how you can use brick-look tiles for your interiors.

 

Why You Should Use Brick-Look Tiles

Brick-look tiles allow you to create an exposed wall look without the mess. Bare bricks add the character and texture you need to elevate the look of your home. It’s a great way to create the urban fusion or rustic look to your home on an affordable budget. Porcelain or ceramic brick-look tiles wear well and are very easy to install. These tiles can be installed on fresh walls or pre-existing tiles. You can easily charm the naked eye into thinking that you’re using authentic brick tiles.

 

Mixed Media

Mixed media consists of using two textures to create a unified look. This can be applied all over your home but remember to do this sparingly. This creates an inviting and cozy look to any part of your home. Brick-look tiles are great for the mixed media look.

To apply the brick-look tiles, concentrate the texture mostly on the top portion of the wall. Below, you can place a plain tile. It can be glossy or matte depending on your desired result. Compliment the brick-look tile with sleek lighting with metallic finishes to complete the look.

 

Urban White

If you’re more interested in a monochromatic design, choose a brick-look tile with a light tone. You can use warm off-white or cool white brick-look tiles. This can be used in the dining area or foyer of your home. If you’re interested in adding a more rugged look, you can combine the brick-look tiles with metal accents and wood paneling. Metal accents can come from furniture or lighting while wood paneling adds a sense of authenticity. The white brick-look tiles can look harsh, but you can tone it down with warm lighting. Live plants can also bring life to the room as well as character.
